GrowFast — Accelerator Platform for Startups, Events, and Jobs
We built a web platform for startup enrollment and monitoring, event subscriptions, job offers and applications, with online payments via Alipay and Stripe.
The Problem
Launch a greenfield, accelerator platform that unifies programs, events, and jobs with reliable online payments, clear access control, and low operational overhead.
Our Solution
A Laravel-based core with an administration dashboard, and payments through Stripe and Alipay. We implemented role-based access, background jobs for workflows, and analytics for program and event performance.

Operational dashboards for programs, events, and jobs
Automated emails and notifications for key user actions
